Description
The PCI-1405 Frame Grabber is a sophisticated piece of equipment designed for those who require high-quality image acquisition from analog cameras, be they monochrome or color. The product comes with two distinct part numbers, the main being 185816G-02, and an additional part number 778838-01, ensuring versatility and compatibility for various setups.
This device falls under the category of Frame Grabbers, specifically designed to capture and process video frames from analog video streams. With its onboard frame memory and the capability to leverage system memory through Direct Memory Access (DMA), the PCI-1405 offers enhanced throughput for image processing. Users can benefit from features such as partial image acquisition and the ability to define a programmable region of interest, which are crucial for applications that require focus on specific areas within a video frame.
Compatibility is a key aspect of the PCI-1405, as it supports a range of software including NI Vision Acquisition Software, NI Vision Builder, and the NI-IMAQ driver. This ensures that users can integrate the frame grabber into their systems with relative ease and start processing images with the support of industry-standard software tools.
The device is equipped with 2 BNC front panel connectors, allowing for easy connection to analog cameras. Additionally, it boasts three independent onboard DMA controllers that support scatter-gather DMA, enhancing the efficiency and speed of data transfer between the frame grabber and the system memory.
Control over the acquisition process is flexible and robust, offering options for frame/field selection, trigger control, and software control. This level of control is essential for applications that require precise timing and synchronization between the image acquisition process and other system components or external triggers.
The PCI-1405 is also commendably lightweight at only 0.136 kg, and its dimensions, 4.2 x 6.9 inches, make it a compact solution that can easily fit into a variety of systems without requiring significant space.
